Mary “Verona” Coppley, 94, a resident of Lexington, formerly of Miami, Florida, passed away October 10, 2021 at her residence. Verona was born in Wilkes County on September 8, 1927 to the late John Luther and Rose Sneed Simmons. She owned and operated Verona’s Fabric store in Lexington for 35 years, and in Miami, Florida for 20 years prior to coming to Lexington. Verona was a very active lady who was always on the go. She enjoyed spending time at the lake and going out on the pontoon, quilting, working in her store, and just sitting at the window of her store to people watch on Main Street. Verona was a strong mom who loved her boys immensely. She will be missed by all who knew her. While she was in Miami, she was a member of the Seventh Day Adventist Church. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Toby Fred Coppley; a brother, John Simmons; and a sister, Avonelle Louie.
